Iris Des Issards
The handicapper might have taken a bit of a chance in dropping IRIS DES ISSARDS 4 lb in one go and back to the mark he defied at Newton Abbot in the spring. Something Simple is a potential improver in handicaps and might provide the main threat ahead of Getuptheyard and Avada Kedavra.

Newton Abbot handicap hurdle winner in April. Not so good both starts since but may have needed the outing on last month's Worcester chase debut after a break and has quickly returned to the mark he defied at Newton Abbot.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWorcester2m 7fGoodChase6/9Newton Abbot2m 5f 122yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle6/8Newton Abbot2m 5f 122yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/7Exeter2m 5f 137yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle4/6Taunton2m 7f 198yHeavy (Soft in places)Hurdlepu/8- 6Tom TaggleJ: Isabel WilliamsT: Evan Williams64461-FAge 53/13/111/4

Ended last season with a 3m handicap win at Chepstow. Struggling when falling 3 out on 19.5f reappearance there 3 weeks ago but the return to a longer trip could see him in a better light.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosChepstow2m 3f 100yGood to SoftHurdleF/16Chepstow2m 7f 131yGood (Good to Soft in places )Hurdle1/15Ludlow2m 5f 55ySoftHurdle6/9Taunton2m 3f 1ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Hurdle4/10Hereford2m 3f 147yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Hurdle4/11- 4GetuptheyardJ: Bryan CarverT: Nigel Hawke-226FF4Age 67/27/210/3

Still a maiden but largely run with credit over hurdles this year, finishing runner-up 3 times. Another respectable effort when fourth of 9 at Lingfield (23f, good) 16 days ago.

Notched a hurdle hat-trick for Olly Murphy in the spring. Hasn't been able to continue the good work over fences more recently and pulled up back hurdling on recent first outing for Nick Scholfield.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosExeter2m 2f 111yGoodHurdlepu/11Market Rasen2m 7f 191yGoodChase6/10Stratford-on-avon3m 3f 119yGood to FirmChase4/6Perth2m 7f 180yGood (Good to Soft in places)Chase8/11Stratford-on-avon3m 2f 83yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle3/5
